Office of Accessibility Services

Mission Statement

SUNY Geneseo, in compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, is dedicated to providing advocacy, accommodations, and support services to students with disabilities.

The Office of Accessibility Services will provide reasonable accommodations and auxiliary aids and services designed to ensure that no qualified student with a disability is denied equal access to, participation in, or benefit of the programs and activities of SUNY Geneseo.

It is the goal of the Office of Accessibility Services to facilitate an accessible and inclusive campus environment.

Fall 2020 Office Updates

All appointments will be conducted via phone or virtually. Students must make an appointment in advance by emailing access@geneseo.edu or calling 585-245-5112 and we will reply during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00am - 4:15pm. 

The Testing Center will be at reduced hours and reduced capacity in order to comply with social distancing guidelines and will hold reduced hours, 11:00am - 4:00pm, Monday through Friday. Please refer to our Testing Center web page for more information. 

As of Spring 2020, The Office of Disability Services changed its department name to The Office of Accessibility Services (OAS) in order to align more closely with SUNY Geneseo’s value of equity and inclusion for all students, faculty, staff, and community members. OAS will continue to provide reasonable academic and housing accommodations for students with disabilities. Our new email address is access@geneseo.edu. Any email sent to the former email address will be automatically rerouted to the new email.
